the week in pictures...

I'm back! Still recovering from a busy week away, but I've also got a list of crossed-off tasks to show for it. Since I'm feeling pretty inarticulate -- more so than usual, that is -- here are some pics for a bit of flavour.

This is my friend V and her absolutely stunning patchwork shawl in Kidsilk Haze.



Some of you may recognize this Rowan pattern or have done it yourself. If so, my hat's off to you because the result is a true work of art. The camera simply does not do this beauty justice.

In between planes, trains and automobiles, there was time to squeeze in a leisurely coffee and some casual photography.





This image makes me think of The Da Vinci Code.







Cushions I simply couldn't resist (Le Bon Marche during a sale is treacherous territory, I tell you -- treacherous!):



There was also a stop at La Droguerie, which at the time was wall-to-wall people. After a modest wait, we picked up a king's ransom in craft materials, including these ribbons:



And lastly, there was more than one FO completed. Can't show them to you now, though, but you're quite welcome to inspect what the needles left in their wake.



Hope you're all well!
